I don't think I know any Pagans who would say their faith is the only "real" path.

I dont think that Paganism is the only real faith just the oldest. All faiths are real as long as you believe it is so. That is what is important.

Careful! seeing your faith as the only true form of belief is a very dangerous thing to do. Look at how much damage has been down by other religious people who believed that their faith was "The Only Way!"

When you look into these other organized religions, you see how they copied many pagan rituals to counterfeit, and gain their popularity. Easter, Christmas, even some celebrate halloween. Bah-Humbug! There does yet not exist a true faith, only the truly deceived.

Paganism isn't a faith, in my estimation. It's a way of being. It's not a "top down" religion, with a founder who made decisions about how people should behave. I sincerely doubt whether it can be called a religion at all. Religion to me is evil, whereas Paganism is good.

I'm pagan, and believe there is no "the only real faith"... the fact that one has faith is the important thing.
Also EVERYONE should respect each others beliefs whether you think they're wrong or right.

Oh, don't do that, don't think like that!!!! All paths are valid, all faiths are the personal choice of the believer, it's all the one Source anyway.
You're falling into the trap of telling people what to believe, how to believe, that your way is the only way ... is this sounding familiar? Remind you of anything? Who was it who regularly goes on about the 'One True Faith'?
I'm a Pagan, and it suits ME. I can only answer for myself, I do not pretend to answer for others. I do not try to convert others, it's that old 'Get them all in My Gang' syndrome that I avoid, it's dangerous. Some people are happy as Catholics, it suits THEM, and you have to respect their choice. Otherwise you are just turning into a mirror image of those Born Again types.
Think.

There is only one First Cause, several first causes are not possible, so paganism is illogical. The First Cause has to be a supernatural one, so it is absolutely non sensical to worship material idols or anything other than a single supernatural God. Paganism is inspired by Satan to divert people from giving worship and glory to the Almighty Creator. Satan hates people and desires to trick them into following false gods in order to make them sin against the first commandment and as a result forfeit the eternal life that God desires for them.
So paganisn is a con by the greatest confidence trickster of all time, 'Satan'.

I am Pagan. It seems to me,from other questions and answers on here, that it is mostly Christians who believe theirs is the only one true faith. Pagans (allot at least) follow the old path.We do not claim to be the only real faith.
